John Carter was actually pretty damn cool for me. Visually, it's pretty sweet. Overall, it's so-so. But for some reason it triggered a bunch of memories and feelings from my one super awesome ayahuasca experience, so I was getting into that movie on a whole lot of levels. The Big Lebowski and Amelie are two of my all-time favs, but you've probably seen both as they're pretty popular. "I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it."

The Fountain The Matrix (pt1)
The fountain is one I cant stop watching. The symbolism and messages I get from it are seemingly never ending. On shrooms it takes on Egyptian themes for swim, not sure why. Highly recommended

The Shawshank Redemption is one I really love. The characters of Bogs, the Warden & the captain of the guards Hadley represent all that this is evil. When I want to shout out against the "system" or whatever, I shout, "Fuck you, Bogs!" The Shift is About to Hit the Fan

Really? Read 'em all? Can you recommend some to me please? Read these? If so, what did you think? Wasn't Postsingular dripping with DMT and hyperspatial references, especially in the first half? What happened for the second half? Was he too high to keep it cool? Books: Postsingular by Rudy Rucker Night's Dawn Trilogy by Peter Hamilton, including The Reality Dysfunction, The Neutronium Alchemist and The Naked God Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons So many movies try to be psychedelic, but few succeed imo. These stand out for either superior effort or success: Movies: 2001: A Space Odyssey Blueberry aka Renegade The Fountain Mr. Nobody "But even if nothing lasts and everything is lost, there is still the intrinsic value of the moment. The present moment, ultimately, is more than enough, a gift of grace and unfathomable value, which our friend and lover death paints in stark relief."-Rick Doblin, Ph.D. MAPS President, MAPS Bulletin Vol. XX, No. 1, pg. 2Hyperspace LOVES YOU

I would have to say other than some of the movies already mentioned here Baraka, Curious George pt1, Pink Floyd The Wall and What the bleep do we know pt2 down the rabbit whole also the Planet Earth series (Sigorney Weaver narration only). Frozen Planet series and the underwater series,(can't remember what it's called by the same makers...) And why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, but do not percieve the plank in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, "brother let me remove the speck from your eye", when you yourself do not see the plank that is in your own eye?-Yeshua ben Yoseph

Planet Earth is brilliant - but, as far as narration goes, it's Sir David Attenborough all the way

Equilibrium is one of my favorite science fiction movies that addresses the importance of emotions and artistic expression, plus it's got some sweet fight scenes. I know it's not the first movie of it's kind with a dystopian society, but it's still good nonetheless. Can't forget about V for Vendetta for obvious reasons K-PAX is another great psychology based film that really gets you thinking, as well as The Butterfly EffectOr you could go old school and watch all the kids Disney films like Aladdin, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Lion King you name it A dramatic shift approaches...

I would suggest this too. And if you watch it extremely high it feels like you're really dreaming. Or if you prefer nightmares apply the same technique to a David Lynch movie, like Eraserhead or Inland Empire.

One of my all time favorites, is the biographical documentary of Robert Anton Wilson, Maybe Logic. I recommend everyone see this film, or look into the ideas RAW presents in his writing, lectures, etc. "let those who have talked to the elves, find each other and band together" -TMK
In a society in which nearly everybody is dominated by somebody else's mind or by a disembodied mind, it becomes increasingly difficult to learn the truth about the activities of governments and corporations, about the quality or value of products, or about the health of one's own place and economy. In such a society, also, our private economies will depend less upon the private ownership of real, usable property, and more upon property that is institutional and abstract, beyond individual control, such as money, insurance policies, certificates of deposit, stocks, etc. And as our private economies become more abstract, the mutual, free helps and pleasures of family and community life will be supplanted by a kind of displaced citizenship and by commerce with impersonal and self-interested suppliers... The great enemy of freedom is the alignment of political power with wealth. This alignment destroys the commonwealth - that is, the natural wealth of localities and the local economies of household, neighborhood, and community - and so destroys democracy, of which the commonwealth is the foundation and practical means.” - Wendell Berry

The Holy Mountain Baraka (should be viewed with headphones on a big HD tv)  ––––––
DMTripper is a fictional character therefore everything he says here must be fiction. I mean, who really believes there is such a place as Hyperspace!!

The only one I can think of thats not already mentioned is the Chinese film, 'Life on a String" Its about a blind wandering musician seeking sight. Mirrors the quest for enlightenment. The cinematography and message of this movie blew me away even with Chinese subtitles. In the province of the mind what one believes to be true, either is true or becomes true within certain limits. These limits are to be found experimentally and experientially. When so found these limits turn out to be further beliefs to be transcended. In the province of the mind there are no limits. However, in the province of the body there are definite limits not to be transcended.-J.C. Lilly The Spice must flow Zat was Zen and dis is Dao.
